    Also got this the other day, right after I heard SMS was closing up. Been watching this for a while too and didn't want to miss out Enzo FXX Super Detail Kit with full carbon fiber template

    yes that one. Worth the money. It has brass PE for the rear suspension framing. Really cool stuff

    I was so excited to get this kit with the hobby design kit, then looked at all the parts and I realized I wasn't quite ready for it. Your build is looking incredible

    This is looking really good. I have this kit with the Model Factory Hiro upgrade kit and some other stuff, but not sure when I'll get around to it.

    Won't build it for a while, been watching it on Ebay for a year, but I wanted to pull the trigger before they disappear for good
  6. Quick GMC
    I'm in the middle of this build as well. Looking good!

    I might have a bottle of Washington Blue from Scale Finishes I won't use. I'll check when I get home. I bought 2 bottles and used it on this Ford Custom over gray primer. Not the best pics. I got dust in mine and had to strip it, but this is how the Scale Finishes lays down, no clear coat. It's an enamel

    I have the HRM engine kit for the GT40, but I have a feeling this will be significantly better.

    I purchased one of the 1/8th engines and I would definitely be interested in a couple of these

    for you guys that are having issues, just make sure you clarify that you are ordering from GravityColors.com, and not Gravity-Colors.com They are 2 companies.

    That's better than my airbrush painting

    that's the one I forgot to take a pic of, I have the rubber black set as well, can't seem to find the Tamiya rubber black spray anymore I haven't used the True Metals yet, but I am hoping the colors shine really well, it would be great for heat staining. I use Alclad right now, but it takes some of the shine away

    I have some paints from the art store, from what I understand, the pigments in the Ablteilung paints are ground to a much finer size, so when diluting and washing, there are no chunks or debris. So far, this seems to be true, as the stuff I had from Michael's wasn't super consistent. I don't think it's as critical in 1/24-1/25 scale as it is for the 1/35 and 1/48 military guys

    I haven't opened it yet. At quick glance it looks like paper, like Tamiya tape. I have the Tamiya white vinyl bending tape and it's nice, but this .4mm stuff is super tiny. I'll check it out when I get home.

    I went kind of nuts at Hiro Boy. The 4 squares are books with Hi Res photos for reference. Incredible pictures

    there is already a thread going in this section, you can see the updated thread there.

    dude, sorry for your loss, that is a rough year. I hope things get much better for you this year.

    it's a 7 year old thread and all the pictures are gone

    Brembo Gold from Gravity Colors is pretty good.

    I am a one man operation in my business. I also deal with Mfg. and vendors that take unreasonably long to get me products. I know this and I relay this information to my customers. I take their money only if they are okay with waiting. I have never dealt with Red Frog, but if they have a history with this with HRM, it also falls on them, speaking from their shoes. If it happens a few times here and there, it happens, but if it is a consistent issue, then you need to operate with that in the open

    Yeah Rob was the plane specialist. Not sure what everyone is up to now, the shop closed down pretty quickly

    I knew Kevin Fairly well, Uncle Don's was the only shop in town. I know most of the details surrounding the death, but I won't post them on the forum out of respect. I have seen Kevin hundreds of times and never once did he seem like he was in a bad mood. He was always very chipper and very eager to please his customers. He was the train specialist at the hobby shop. Models was not really their forte, but they did keep a small inventory on hand. As far as the thefts mentioned in the article, they have nothing to do with his death. There was always a large community of people willing to help and try and get his stuff back for him.
